I shot this image on Canon 5D Mark III with EF50mm f1.4 USM with 65mm extension tube and off camera flash on stand about 1/2 feet away at 45 degree angle with diffuser using tracing paper, the speedlite was on 1/8th power n aperture was f16, 1/200 sec., ISO 100 manually taken. Hope this will serve the purpose

I had EF100mm f2.8L IS USM using for my engineering components macro assignment for 2/3 industries for their RLA analysis [Residual Life Assessment]. Recenly some 8/9 months before I sold it. At present I have not macro lens. Will buy shortly.

Any reason why you sold ?

As such no reason and best part I sold to one of my students who is shooting wedding vdo with that lens. I was short of money to buy EF135mm f2L USM for my portrait work. Lens was neat and clean with no dents or sign on it.

That’s a shame, because I have that lens and I love it. I meant the 100mm Canon L
